init SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 4 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

init from phmatray/tagout is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add phmatray/tagout/init@git:20261010.9485205

Make a repository ready for the issue/PR lifecycle skills in one command — record its facts in the committed profile (`.claude/skills/repo-profile.md`: commit identity, build/test commands, labels, merge style, conflict hot-spots), converge its labels, issue forms, settings, topics and Pages source from a manifest, then refresh the profile. Use for a new repo or one that drifted: "init this repo for the kit", "set up the repo profile", "set up the labels…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Make a repository ready for the lifecycle skills

`create-issue`, `implement-issue`, `merge-pr` and `auto-dev` are generic workflows wrapped around a
thin layer of repo-specific facts. This skill does the whole setup story in one pass: it **records**
those facts in a committed profile, **converges** the configuration they describe (labels, issue
forms, settings, topics, Pages source) from a declarative manifest, and **refreshes** the profile so
it reports what now exists. Decision record: [ADR 0018](../../docs/adr/0018-profile-repo-and-setup-repo-merge-into-init.md).

The profile is data, not a skill ([ADR 0001](../../docs/adr/0001-the-repo-profile-is-committed-data-not-a-skill.md)):
the lifecycle skills read it at their Step 1, and only reach for this skill when it is missing.

## Three paths

| Invocation | Does | Writes on GitHub |
|---|---|---|
| `/tagout:init` | profile → `plan` → `apply` when it found drift → refresh the profile | yes — labels, forms, settings, topics, Pages |
| `/tagout:init --plan` | profile → `plan`; prints the drift | no |
| `/tagout:init --profile-only` | show the profile, or generate it when missing (add `--refresh` to regenerate) | no |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add phmatray/tagout/init@sha256:03bce3a1c2057e30

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.9485205, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
